Background
- Traumatic dislocation of scapula from thoracic wall
- Mechanism: massive traction force to ipsilateral upper extremity/shoulder girdle
- Associated with vascular injury to subclavian or axillary artery and brachial plexus injury
Clinical Features
- Upper extremity pain
- Upper extremity numbness/tingling, weakness
- Swelling, ecchymosis to shoulder
- Injury to subclavian or axillary arteries: hematoma, pulse deficit
- Severe mechanism → often associated with chest trauma
Differential Diagnosis
Thoracic Trauma
- Airway/Pulmonary
- Cardiac/Vascular
- Musculoskeletal
- Other
Evaluation
- CXR
- Laterally displaced scapula
- Associated with distracted clavicle fracture, AC spearation, sternoclavicular dislocation
- CT Chest
- To identify intrathoracic injuries
- CT Angio
- To detect vascular injuries
Management
- Any evidence of neuro or vascular damage, hemodynamic instability→ surgery
- Normal neuro exam, no vascular injury: immobilization, supportive care
Disposition
